ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. EXETER, WtrwasnAT, JULY 26. citowN sins. At the sitting of the Court, William Dodd, whose ex traordinary case we noticed yesterday, was brought up to recei e judgment on his conviction for having assaulted the girl. .Gads German, with intent to ravish her. Mr. justice (Jaselee addressed him, saying that. he had' been convicted upon evidence which had been submitted to the consideration of the jury, who were constitutionally the' proper persons to decide anon it ; and he had had the benefit of a defenee by counsel, as well as a full exa-. mination of all the facts upon which the question of his guilt or inno cence h a d tu r ne d. It therefore became JUL (the Learned Judge's) duty to sentence him to such a punishment as the Case demanded for the pur poses of justice. Even if, in 'point of fact, the pri soner had not beim guilty to the extent charged by the indictment, still there was enough beyond all dis pute to show that his cmiduct'had been scandalous and disgraceful. He had paid his attentions to a young woman 16 years ago. She had received them ; had re tinned his attachment ; was faithful to her promise during a H. years' absence; and on his return 'every e;oangement was made for the marriage. Yet, it was, miaer these cir cumstances that the priSoner, few hOurs before his marriage, had committed the ontrage for which he was now to be Punished ; unotnitted, too, on a child only 15 years of age, and of the prisoner was old enough to be the father. kt any time, and under any circumstances, it would have been his duty-at a man to protect the girl from the licerttiousuess of any other person ; but, consi dering the fame in question relative to the prisoner him "lf. " as all the other circumstances, his conduct had 1 ' (len marked by every possible aggravation. Had he completed. the act, for the mere attempting of which t de was now convicted, it . was highly probable that the jnry would on the material question have arrived it the same unfavourable conclusion against him ; and in that case his (the Learned Judge's) duty would have been to pass judgment of death upon him, and in all probability :to leave him: for execution. The sentence which would now be passed was not so severe as it would have been, if the offence had been committed in an earlier part of the evening ; but his Lordship said he had taken into consi deration the fact that the girl herself had shown great im prudence in staying in the fair until so late nut hour, and in then going into the dancing-room, where she :unfortu innately came under the observation of the prisoner, It was, indeed, to be regretted that she was allowed to go to such a place alone : : but there was no reason for severely blaming her master and mistress, who had behaved well and kindly to her, and who certainly might not expect that she would become an object of such brutality to any Man, as she had been to the prisoner. Under all the cir etimstancea he said, hodid not think be should discharge his public duty if he pronounced any milder sentence than that which he then Which Wits that he should be im prisoned in the Hoinie of Correction for six calendar months, and there kept to hard labour. The prisoner appeared to be well pleased with the re sult, as he had been committed on the capital charge. This doSed the crown business ; and Mr. Justice Giese ,. 4e proceeded to try causes. TEED V. LAWSON. This Was what, in . legal Aanginige, is called a specia action on the case. The plaintiff, by his declaration, emu. plained that the defendant was hy him employed as master of a trading brig, and had negligently run foul of another vessel . ; that the owners of that vessel had brought an action against the plaintiff to recover damages for the injury done, and had recovered Oh damages, and their costs, amounting to 100/. more, which the plaintiff had been compelled to pay. This was, therefore, an "action over" as it is called ; and by this the. plaintiff sought to recover . the money he had been compelled to pay to the owners of the injured vessel, and also his costs of mew, cesd'ully defending the aetiotr, and a sum of 81. fur the in -1 jury done to the, plaintitrs own vessel by the collision of the two.. FroM this Statement it niust be obvious that the first question was, whether the mischief was really, caused by the defendant's want of skill. The plaintiff's vessel was called the Tim Brothers, the other was called the Lord Nelson. The latter was already moored, or at least stationary, ill the. ettye. : he Two Brothers, wide; the defendant's command, carne, into the cove, with at least some of her sails up ; the defendant, it was said, believing that his vessel would take ground in time, he not being aware of the depth of water. The Two Brothers, how ever, came in great force against the. Lord Nelson, and died. hoc ; very great damage. The defendant at the 1 time said to the, .i.Yetson people, "It could not be `helped-:-It'aMst he set to rights. The boatman proved that the defendant's Manner of entering the cove was unskilful; and in this he Was corroborated by the super intendant of the cove. The defendant now endeavoured to show that he had notbeen guilty of negligence; and called the mate of the Two Brothers, who. gave it as his opinion that there had been none. The evidence of this witness had not, how ever, been furnished by the defendant to meet the former action ; and it came out that the witness himself thought he was ill used by the plitho 111 in not doing something ibr his benefit, which, it Was said, he bad promised to do. The defendant aiso called a Mall, who said he was a pi lot.;. knew the coast and the eddy, and that he would have done the same as the defendant had. This witness, how ever, on Cross-examination, injured_ the defendant's case, for he made the danger of entry into the cove so great, that it might be a restion whether the defendant had not Shown negligence in entering the cove at all without a pilot. The Jury, under the direction of the Judge, found ii verdict for' the plaintiff on the main question, and he consented to divide the damages, so that a verdict . was taken for 119/. wArtwux Jrr,r Sum. VIE KING V. AIARY ANNE WASSrIi This lady, whose adventurous pursuit of Doctor Wake has been the theme of much merriment in this ancient bo rough, was this morning, brought up custody of the gaoler, upon a motion of Mr , ifirinfreys, calling upon the e9futnittingmakistrates to show cause why Ahe should not be discharged out of custody. Mr. ninnfrays, today, contended, that. the commit ment Wts-Siiiegal,as the offence imputed to the prisoner was 50 indictable offence, and no bill had been preferred .itgainst: her. _ . Mr. Amm-i, in support of the conviction, contended that the prisoner was committed merely to find securities " her good behaviour." The Judge said he' would give his opinion on the sub ject before the assizes ended. , The lady, who is rather an inteliigent•looking person, but whose glory longevity has somewhat obscured,, then retired from the bar. , DURHAM, TiricsnxY, hay 2b. sinx.--4,01tE A 141) OTKEit,li V. 1154160 h. scariatt , state d that this was an action which the plaintiff hack .beet) co mpelled t o .eouolic„„, in order not on ly to recover damages for the 'injury which th e d e ., fendalit's slander had been calculated to create, hut al so to prevent the repetition of that slander in future. Th,, plamtiffa were engaged together as copartners in a house in Sunderland, where they carried on extensive dealings as woollen drapers and grocers. The jury would probably well remember the panic, which in the commence.. ment of this year seiie& upon I.ondon, and which, in the cour s e'of the month of March, rapidly spreading over the kingdoni. reached this cou»ty.. At that tune, no man, how eter gnat his resperrability, could ealciihat with any ea tainty upon the stability of his affairs; such a moment had the defendantehoaen forthe purpose of publighing a false hood, di re ctly calculated to ruin the plaintiffs' eotnmercial r,P04 1 0.1 1 .' t Bth of that month he had thought tit to declare to several P eraoi s that "the plaintiffs - had failed, and h a d offered L i coo:pobitiott of 7s. lid. in the pound." The first person to whom this slander would be proved to have been uttered, was 11.1/Tri Grey, who, being desirous of purchasing n horse belonging to one of the de fendtuit'i ,panners, went to their counting-house and in quired tot that partner. On being told that he was not within, Mr. Grey entered into conversation with the de fendant, and was told him that he need be in no hurry to purchase the horse, for that two horses of the kind he wanted would be sold in a few days, at a eheap rate. Mr. Grey naturally inquired where this, sale was to take place, when the defendant said, in answer, " At Spore's, for they have failed, and have offered 7s. 6d. in the pound to their creditors." This closed the plaintiff's case. Mr. J. Williams, for the defendant, admitted that there must be a verdict against his client, and his duty was con fined to the single point of addressing them in Mitigation of the damages. In doing this, he thought there was one circumstance too obvious to be omitted by tiny one— namely, that throughout ; the plaintiff's evidence, there was not the syllable of suspicion that he was ac tuated by 'irmiicious motives, - "kr. Baron I-hillock thought that the injury , proved only called on the jury for moderate damages, '• The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff- -Damages, 30!. FARMER V. WEBSTER. This was an action to recover 12/. as the value of ct looking-glass, which a sheep belonging to the defendant biul destroyed. The plaintiff was a jeweller at Stockton, and the defendant was a butcher, who was driving some sheep through that town, when one of them walked up to a looking-glass standing outside the plaintiff's shop, mid beheld its own image in it. As the sheep did not happen to be a dandy, the reflection of its own image, instead of awakening its vanity, excited its ire, and, it ran against the glass, which was instantly shivered to atoms. The plaintiff, seized upon the graceless quadruped, and declared he would detain it for the damages—a proposition to which the defendant, who well knew its value, instantly consented. The plaintiff, however, after having kept it for some time, discovered that he lad miscalculated as to the worth of the sheep which he retained, and had re course to law to obtain compensation. Mr. F. Pollock, for the defendant, took an objection on this variance between the statement and the proof, and rather than run the risk of a-nonsuit, the plaintiff consented to an agreement, by which each party was to pay his own costs, and to leave the damage unsatisfied. CRIMINAL SIDE. William Ruddick was indicted for having, on Wednesday last, the 19th of this month, assaulted one Joshua Hen derson, and put him in bodily fear, and taking from his person the sum of 761. in notes and silver. The appear ance of the two person s st rong ly co ntrasted them with each other. The prisoner was a short slight young man, while the prosecutor, who seemed to be nearly six feet high, was well formed, and very muscular. From the prosecu tor's statement, it appeared' that on last Tuesday, he was returning home from Darlington to a. place in. the vicinity of Barnard-castle, when .he. engaged the prisoner to be come a, servant with him. Ile stayed that night on the road, and in the course of his journey on the following day he stayed at several places to take money which was ow ing to him, and which he collected 'to nearly the amount of 801. When he arrived near the place where the robbery was committed, he said to the prisoner," Go thee back, for I don't like thy looks;" to which the prisoneranswered," Nay, master, do let me go with thee, and I will behave myself well.", They then proceeded a little further, when the prosecntor again desired him to go back ; upon which pri soner took hold of the bridle of his pony. Prosecutor seeing this, said to him, " Let go the bridle, else I'll fell thee on which the prisoner did leave the bridle, but continued running by the side of prosecutor's pony, and in a short time afterwards took the stick from prosecutor's hand, and knocked him off the pony ; prosecutor did not remember any thing from that time till he found himself raised up in the road by some one, and that he felt his pocket,' end finding his book gone, he elicit (nit.that he was robbed; a small' bundle that the prisoner had catrled was found by the prtuieentor when he was discovered. The prisoner, in his defence, gave a long history of all the public-houses at which he and the prosecutor had stopped to drink during, the two, days of their travelling together, and said, that on the second day, the prosecutor had got so intoxicated that he fell off his pony, and pri soner put him on it again ; that prosecutor afterwards at tempted to pick a quarrel with him, awl did strike him, and beat the pony without any cause whatever. The .lury, after about two minutes' consideration, found the prisoner at/Viz/. Sentence of death was then, for form's sake, recorded against the prisoner. . UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

Sin, ---In your Paper, dated July 14, containing Police Intelligence of Bow-street, for Wednesday, I find that a woman called Crowley was charged with annoying Captain Knox and his mother. Through the medium of your respectable Journal I should be ,;lad' to make a few observations, with a view of hay. nig an impression removed, which from the ambiguity of her statement; would probably be made on other readers besides myself. Mrs. Crowley stated that she had left her husband to be housekeeper to Lieutenant General Brown (the uncle of Captain Knox), at his pressing solicitations, and while in his service had two children; that lie pro mised to provide for one, and at his decease to allow her 501. per annum. From such a statement any one would naturally infer that the General had seduced this woman from her husband, that she cohabited with him, and in fact had two children by him. This inference is strengthened by the same report, which says, that she has a soil by her huffband, who Is; yet alive and expected from India. If the inference, then, be a true one, that she cohabited with the General; it seems rather too much to expect that any female rela tive, who came into the possession of his ibrtunei on his demise, would pay her the annuity, not per's by law. If relations, executors, or heirs,: were morally bound to provide for such women, and for their ille gitimate offspring, it would act as a bounty u p on their increase. Mr. Halls, the magistrate, must certainly not have understood the ease in this light, but have considered her to be a modest, upright, and faithful servant, when he said, as your, paper reports,' that the relatives of the General were morally bound to give her assistance, and that their refusal to do so was in his opinion disgraceful. If any of the parties concerned would elucidate the matter, it might not be unacceptable - to public justice, and would oblige, Sir, Your Coll6tallt reader, W' MA itch or T lNTntat..kc.r.—A butcher's wife ill the country bent asked what had become of her grand daughter, replied, that ‘, she was not at home, for Mrs. P., who keeps twenty-five servants, had solicited her to be her dairy-maid, and as the could not refuse the lady, she let her go." CONSTANTINOPLE. (From the _Pate of July 2t1.) CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 26,-,Sinee the 15th Sultan Mahmoud has always . been dressed in the Egyptian cos- Wine, a niilitary habit equally rich and elegant. The cavu k i s n o longer worn, except .by the Ministers and 64(11 of depart/ileitis : it is replaced by ft It seems beyond a doubt that the Sultan mrne out of tile seraglio in this dress, on the very 'day when the danger was so great. They talk of reform - , and an entire restoration of the Government : every Thing is to assume a new face.— Three thousand men from Rumelia have entered the ca pitol ! they wear the Albanian dress. The Armenian Patriarch has received orders to gelid to Asia for two, thousand of his nation, to serve rel guards to the Baziuit's and the Iletieiten, and as porters in the service of theAd tniralty (Minim's): Executim 1 5 and .hatiishthentsi 'Ott timid.

The most severe prohibitions are renewed against affording an asylum to the rebels. Whoever, after the term of eight days shall have harboured a fugitive, shall himself be hanged, if any one is discovered in the domiciliary visits which will be made-at that time. Dawoud Pacha will become an immense barrack of 100,000 square pikes in extent (a pike is 28 inches). The work is already carrying on with great activity, and 300 soldiers superintend and protect the labourers. The new mosque of - Topkhana, built at the expence of the Sultan, after the Ist March, 1823, and which had been called Adlice (the just), has just been distinguished by the name of Fethy Sultan Mahmoud (Sultan Mahmoud Con queror). There has been no execution to-day, but sen tences of banishment continue to restore to agriculture men who lived at Constantinople at the expense of the people. His Highness, when he went on Friday to players in the mosque of Park Paella, at Topkhana, saluted with a gracious smile the faithful Topchis, who formed a double line, armed with muskets. The convents of the Biklachis are being pulled down, the founder of which consecrated, above 400 years ago, the institution of the proscribed corps. The coffee-houses at Galata and Constantinople, which were the haunts and the asylum of the evil-minded, are being demolished : a great number of shops, which are of nd use, are put down : a reduction is made in the number of men attached to them, and who are not indis- lensahly necessary. The Seraskier and the President General of the new army are usefully employed in its or ganization, They ask for all the information that can guide them, and are every where inquiring for French books, to derive from them examples and morals. The Sultan has ordered a manufactory of .arms to be established on 'a scale sufficiently large to supply all the wants of the empire. For the present the corps of ar mourers must finish every week 300 muskets and bayonets. The ex-Bolange is appointed inspector of the works at Dawoud Pacha, which are to be terminated in. 40 days. lie also commands 300, men, who guard the avenues of the capital.—Jussuf Pacha, son of Ismael Bey, of Veres, has entered Constantinople, at the head of 600 Albanian®. It is said that he has left behind him 6000 men of the same nation. The palaces and houses of the Franks, which have net yet htittgout lights, as others have doni, have been called upon to do So. All the streets are now well lighted dtiring the night, and Word a very new sight in this country. On the 22d the Reis Effendi had sent for the interpreters of the EuroPean Legation, to claim the Janiisaries attached to them,, under the title of Yas saktchis, pr guards, signifying that they would he replaced by other gaards, chosen by the new authorities. The Yanaktehis, a great number of whom have been ftwmany yearn: in the get-vire, mutt have mitsite4 dance of the legritious which eurployed them, took no Are ti ve part in the rebellion of their comrades : accordingly every body feels interested in their fate. They were as sembled on the 23d by the Wrgiwode,of Galata, to be. in formed of the orders of their Sovereign; they were in despair. The legation have thought. it, best ,to tell them to obey the, orders of the Sultan. The interpreters of the Christian legation have recormnended their old servants to the Reis Effendi, and ?to the Seraskier, Hussein' Pacha. Most of them havebeetr or will be received in' the sequel into the corps which are preserved of the I.ldinberdiers, Boslangis, and seamen ; *Ong 'the TashaCs of the Go vernment. The oldest may reinain borne r, u rin account of their advanced lige. The Government has fixed the price of bread, 'meat, and rice, yeducing them to about three-quarters of what they were before. The number of Barber Coffee-hotise Keepers" will be reduced, so as to leave no asylum to the idle and ill-disposed.—The great barracks of the artillery, above the quarter of Pena, are going to be considerably enlarged. The palace of the Itchoglans (the Sultan's pages), called Galata Semi, si tuated in the centre of the quarter of the Franks, is to become the hotel of a Paella, the Commander of a corps of troops. The Nazin or Inspector commanding in chief the forts at he entrance of the Black Sea has bee - rt appointed Chan. n er l a in to the Sultan as a reward for his zeal, and the good Order which he has preserved among those underhim. Five vagabonds were strangled at the end of last week in those Forts. Thirteen Yamacks sent to Constantinople have shared the same fate. The corps of the Trrpschis have also rigourously purified. We expected the fitmous Ahozil-Aboint-Pacha, bOZielfAilbOtit*Ptiella, one 'of the Captains of Djezzar Pacha, who defended - St. Jean I)'Acre against Btiona parte. It is iffirtried that the Kara Djeliennem Ibrahim Aga, officer of the Topschis, is or will .be Made a Pitch& of t wo tails, an d w ill reside in Galata Senti. The Porte is in search of some rebellious Ottstas, who have hitherto evaded its vengeance. Those of the 59th and (34th legions , were strangled yesterday ; three others perished to-day by order of the Seraskier, Hussein Paella. The Sultan has allowed the Ulemas to return to their lintels, except the . Mufti, the two Kazeaskers on duty, the an cient Cherskh u l, I s l a m, Puri, Zadi, and Rahint Bey, for merly Kazeasker of.. Anatolia; those Magistrates remain in the Imperial Camp. Some servants of Mirzit Riza, the Persian. Charge d'Affaires, who, to the surprise of every body, have not yet set out for Tausis, mixed among those Who plundered the barracks of the Elineidan, These stran gers got a good share of the booty, which was, however, authorised. The ppening of the taverns has been permitted on the following conditions :—Wine shall be sold at sixteen parts per eke (about eighteen contains a bottle.) Brandy at forty pants, . The great taverns shall be obliged to keep two fire engines, the small ones only one. They shall be exempt from the duties which they paid to the Odjak of the Jimissaries. The police shall watch them strictly, This measure is a mark of security in the 'Government, and at the same time 'a means of superintendeitce, 'We hear much of a restoration of the coin of the Sultan, who, up f an oontie behold of perhaps, feels the n ecess i ty o f no farther injuring thi s b as h ) of public and pri va t e prosper ity.

That of the exiled is more considerable—I 5 or 16,000; some say 12,000.; for every man wini does not idler Sufficient security, is obliged to quit the capital, and return to his country w here may mention a report to which credit is, generally given, though no written two of it eau be found.; .the displaying Of the Sacred Standard is always marked by 1.2,000 victims, ati , l till this number, is complete the standard is not carried back to the imperial Treasury. However void of form= dation this opinion might be, it is so deeply rooted in the minds of the people that it must not be passed, over in silence. Pants, JULY 25.—We received accounts from Con tonninople of June 27, on the correctiYess of which our readers May depend. All the news given by the Journal des Debals has no fihmiation but reports inserted in the Augsburg Gazette, to which that journal itself attaches nq importance. It Will be seen• that it is false that no cou rier has left Constantinople since the 25th. He who brought ue this news set out on the 27th. Sultan Mahomtried =blues his reform in the interior of his Palace. He encourages his Ministers in their la-. bours by his ardour and personal application. He remains night and day in the Seraglio, leaving it only for tt few moments, to visit the Imperial family, that remains at Beschicktask. It is positively affirmed, that the Sultan has cleclated i by an autograph rescript, that the property of the Ridjals, and other officers Of Government, shall no more be confiscated, even though they are ptniished with deaths The Sultan has despatched the Hassiki Aga to the Pacha of Egypt, with testimonies of his satisfaction. The presence 6e the guard at the Grand Vizier's Palace, guided the robbers who penetrated into the Harem of his Highness on the night of the 14th of June, instead of de . - fending it. A part of the booty which they carried off has been found in their quarters. After this discovery they were delivered to the Bostangi Baski, to be tortured before they are put to death: The Seraskier Hussein Pacha thinks of nothing but regiments, muskets, and uniforms. 'Meantime, he does not forget to look after the guilty. He has offered 10,00 piastres for the head of an Ousta. It ' is believed that Constantinople and this Cantiette will be under command of seven Pachas ; Osman Pacha, formerly at the head of the Custom-house at Constantinople, an enemy of the late Halet Effendi, is one of those whom it is intended to employ in the capital. Kulchuck Mehemet, Vacha of Anatolia, will have the government of Galat a . garrison of regular troops will maintain security in Pere, and the old and new Yassaktchies, of European legations, will be replaced by a guard of honour, which will be re lieved every 24 hours. The tumult which took place at Adrianople on the 15th June was appeased with as much success as that in the Elmeidan. Pacha had collected 300 organised troops, who entered Censtantitniple last Friday. Seven thousand men are already inscribed at Ser•Asker-Kepoussy. Those new soldiers are very diligently exercised. But there is no uniformity in their first instructions, and they feel the necessity of having good European teaehers, whom they eagerly look for. This military enthusiasm inflames peo ple's minds, and already carries them beyond due bounds. Tartars from Ibrahim Pacha, who arrived yesterday, the 26th June, and who have been invested in the camp with pelisses of honour, have announced the occupation of twenty-four villages in the district of Zaconia, in the Mores, and the arrival of Ibraham Pacha at. Ambelakia (the Gardens opposite Hydra). The Pacha is said to have taken three thousand prisoners in this military operation. PORTUGUESE CONSTITUTION.

LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 28, 1626. We received last night the Paris Papers of the 25th, with the Doile dated the 26th inst. 'The latter contains a long and highly interesting article fro' Constantinople, dated the 26th June, giving nu g . count of the energetic measures pursued by the Sultan since the memorable events of the 15th ; and xis° furnishes some additional news from that City to the 27th June, received by a Courier who left it on tha t day. These articles are given at length in 00616. column. The ene'gy and resolution of the SULTAN hive increased with his success; and it would appear .4 111 he has Availed himself of this opportunity to attempt 0, complete reform in every department. of the Stil e ' In his own person he has set the example of a obsnii e of dress.

If we may fot"' an opinion from the little resistance which has been or posed to the vigorous measures the SULTAN Iry adopted, and from the'deterthined manner in which be follows them up, we should consider that he . I ° s struck the minds of all with :awe ; that the insurgent." may be said 'to =be completely -put down, and that e will succeed in effecting a: thorough change in ON part . of the.Poyernment, which cannot fail to be Prfg; nant with the most important consequences to Tt" al and perhaps to Europe at large. The persons' ° b ; duet of the SULTAN has, in an instant, altere d , destinies of the Empire ; and, under his sway, Tea get may at once advance, by arapid bound, to poll' consequence amongst.nations, from the state of l os ness, ignorance, and superstition, into which si ts been sunk for ages.
